Sex Worker Vs Escort?

Though an escort may sometimes be categorized as a sex worker, there is a fine line between both individuals. Sex workers are defined by UNAIDS as people who offer sex for money and other goods. An escort, on the other hand, is a person who provides companionship, time and company to clients within a commercial setting. Basically, a sex worker plies their trade in the public while an escort is found via a website or organization where clients can make “bookings” for escort services. The following is a detailed comparison between an escort and a sex worker.

1. Sex workers are cheap and can be hired at unimaginably low prices. Escort services are quite costly and sometimes the cheapest escort can ask for over $200. The reason for the difference in price is quality. An escort with more desirable personal attributes can always ask for more.

2. Most sex workers work daily while escorts work very few days in a month or a week. Escorts are preferred for the same reason since they are considered more hygienic than sex workers who serve multiple clients in a day.

3. An escort prioritizes quality services while a sex worker is more about quantity. Sex workers strive to get as many clients a day while escorts may look for one client to accompany and offer sex for two days or even a week depending on the agreement.

4. Escorts have more time for their clients than sex workers. If clients intend to have a communication and some bonding they will not go for sex workers since they are always in a hurry. They will go for an escort.

5. Sex workers make clients feel cheap while escorts provide a full package of the girlfriend/boyfriend experience. That is why escorts are hired for social events while sex workers are mostly for fast sexual satisfaction.

6. In most countries sex workers are considered as criminals but escorts are not. This may be attributed to the level of decency in both. Even in places where both are considered legal, they are treated the differently by society. Some hotels, for instance, will not allow sex workers to enter their premises but have no problem with escorts who appear more decent than the former.

Basically, sex workers are considered to be of a lower class profession than escorts. They are cheap and provide low-quality services. On the contrary, escorts have higher levels of professionalism and are deemed to have more class. To wrap it up, we may say escorts provide fuller package services than sex workers.
